Earlier dinner may lower risk of some cancers, study says – CNN
Whaaat?? Are we surprised? It just feels better to go to bed on a slightly empty belly! (Early here means early dinner, but I like concept of an eating WINDOW of six to eight hours.)
People who eat dinner before 9 p.m. — or at least two hours before going to sleep — have a 20% lower risk of breast and prostate cancer than those who eat after 10 p.m. or go to bed shortly after supper, researchers found.
Also see my six hour eating window post here.

Thursday Diabetes Seminar
FINAL UPDATE: It was great, but not anything that we haven’t already learned here at Project Waistline. I would like to point out that the green smoothie issue has been settled according to published research reported by nutritionfacts.org that explains satiation is sufficient if we drink our smoothies very slowly, swishing water in our mouth every once in a while to keep dental acidity low. Since mine is loaded with greens, and I sip it while I’m working all morning long, I get full! I also don’t think that good quality bread is a bad thing (in healthy individuals), but I realize it has to be limited for all people, as does whole grain pasta.
UPDATE: Hope you guys registered for this webinar (link is below) b/c they sent me this:
“It’s a total myth that you have to restrict portion sizes and count calories in order to lose weight.
Join us on Thursday to learn how to lose weight easily, all while eating as much as you want!”
